(3.) Aggrieved by the said Order, an appeal was filed before the Division Bench by the respondent herein, and the Division Bench vide its Order dated 17.3.1993 disposed of that appeal in view of the agreement between the counsel for the parties permitting the petitioner herein to correct the description of the petitioner ,as may be permitted by the Company Judge keeping in view the stand taken by the appellant before them. in that order it has been recorded that the counsel for the appellant/respondent herein stated that "he has no objection if the amendment application for correcting the description of the petitioner is filed and the same is allowed by the Company Judge and he further states that he will also not raise any question of limitation and costs."
